Antonio Peramo: Research Fellow, University of Michigan
Research Summary:
My research interests are related to the study of the physics and chemistry of natural polymers, to derive and develop applications useful in medicine and biology using surface science, engineering and nanotechnology as tools. In general I am interested in research in the biomaterials area, including tissue engineering, biodegradable polymers and biointerfaces.
